Very well thanks. At times it gets bit a bit dry but a throat sweet soon gets it back to normal. It helps that we have had a mild yet wild winter so far. Singing-wise, like an monkey desperately trying to break free from a lion that's very hungry and wants it tea.

The Twits is a great book. If you haven't read it i'd heartily recommend doing so, it's very short so should take about 30 mins tops.

Don’t make your love suffer insecurities, trade the baggage of self to set another one free.

Has anyone asked Julian Lennon what he thinks about volcanoes and Roald Dahl?

This forum is not looking as good to me, now that I see what's going to happen with more serious topics.

Ah - threads can get derailed on any forum. We have lots of great discussions on a range of topics - I just think that no one actually has a definitive answer to your original question. If Joe, mmm, mja and DrB don't know, then no one does.

Is there a definitive answer to the question?

As has been mentioned The Beatles entourage wasn't that big. So lets go back to the beginning therefore, who was in the Beatles entourage back between when May 1968(?) and August 1969 when Yoko was on the scene ? I'm rattling of the ones that immediately come to mind, please add others and delete the wrong ones.

George Martin

Neil Aspinall

Mal Evans

Billy Preston

Geoff Emerick

Magic Alex

Chris Thomas

Michael Lyndsay-Hogg

Allen Klein

Glyn Johns

Is this getting us anywhere even if we do approach it this way, do we know what each person's feelings were towards Yoko?

^ Plus, at what point in time? Feelings change, or are kept private if the person is anywhere on the polite side - all these 'hate and tell' books only get written by certain personality types.

That's a good idea. I don't know what any of them thought of Yoko.

I think the reason you haven't had a definitve answer is because nobody here knew/knows everyone who worked with the group, and their views on Yoko (obviously). Therefore, we can't really say for sure.

Hope you're not put off by this.

Moving along in our God given ways, safety is sat by the fire/Sanctuary from these feverish smiles, left with a mark on the door.
